    For a SB Chevy 350 that is being built for Torque . You surely do not want a 500 Lift camshaft . And 1.6 rockers will just add to the valve train wear . Also with a 500 lift Camshaft you will need stronger spring and LT4 retainers . And you may have to cut down the valve seal bosses on your Vortec heads . The best way to go is with the XE262H with 1.5 rockers . This set up will make 375 HP and enough Torque to pull tree's from the ground . If you have your mind set on a bigger cam . The 275DEH is as big that I would go . This cam is 219/229 dur at .050 with 462/482 lift and has a 110 L/S . But I have seen some Dyno run on 350s with the XE262H and it make near the same HP as the XE268H . And it's Torque range is down Lower were it is needed on the street .
